Marvelous experience. 10/10 - Started with a hiccup because my app was telling 2 different pickup locations, but tour was AMAZING! Starting off with the glacial hike where we almost got to the very top and took so many amazing photos and made even more beautiful memories. This was all thanks to Sara our lovely tour guide, who made sure that not only was the experience a once in a lifetime one, but a safe one aswell. From helping to take photos to asking any questions we had, with a few fun facts sprinkled in between. The waterfalls were also breathtaking. Thanks again to Sara and If I ever visit iceland again, I will make sure to see if I can get her as my guide 😂😂

This tour was absolutely... - This tour was absolutely incredible from start to finish! The South Coast of Iceland is breathtaking, and this experience was the perfect way to take it all in. Our guide was fantastic — knowledgeable, funny, and passionate about Iceland’s nature and history. We visited two stunning waterfalls, Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, and both were absolutely magical. Being able to walk behind Seljalandsfoss was unforgettable! The highlight of the day was definitely the glacier hike — our guide made sure everyone felt safe and confident, and the views from the glacier were out of this world. The tour was well organized. It’s a long day, but every moment was worth it. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience the best of Iceland’s natural beauty up close.

An Epic Iceland Adventure – Glacier Hike, Waterfalls & Black Sand Beach - This tour was the perfect mix of adventure and sightseeing, and easily one of the most unforgettable days of my trip. If you want to experience Iceland’s raw natural beauty up close—from waterfalls to glaciers—this is the tour to book. The highlight of the day was the glacier hike. Our guide Sara provided all the gear and gave a quick safety briefing before leading us onto the ice. Walking on the glacier felt surreal—blue ice, deep crevasses, and incredible views in every direction. Sara explained how the glacier is constantly changing and even took professional-style photos, which was a great bonus. Next up was Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach, with dramatic basalt columns and crashing Atlantic waves. It’s beautiful but powerful, and I appreciated the guide emphasizing safety while still giving us time to wander and take it all in. We ended the day at the famous South Coast waterfalls, including Seljalandsfoss, where you can walk behind the cascade, and Skógafoss, powerful and majestic with rainbows in the mist. Both stops offered amazing photo opportunities and just the right amount of time to explore. It’s a long day, so dress warmly and be prepared for changing weather, but every moment is worth it. The combination of sightseeing, adventure, and expert guidance made this feel like multiple tours in one. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to add real adventure to their Iceland itinerary: glaciers, waterfalls, beaches, and memories that last a lifetime.

An adventure of a lifetime!! - Absolutely breathtaking (both literally and figuratively) experience. I will forever be thankful to my tour guide for his patience as it took a lot more stamina than I expected to make it through the entire trip. It also was raining for most of the day when our group went but even then, I am still amazed. Everyone who visits Iceland should have this tour scheduled to get a full experience. I still can’t believe we did all that in a day!!

Best way to see Iceland on a time crunch - Tomas was kind, patient, and knowledgeable! We had ample time at each stop with the freedom to explore for ~30 min per stop, which was incredible! Plenty of food a long the way, and of course, photo ops. I can’t recommend this enough!

Glacier hike was amazing,... - Glacier hike was amazing, well prepared about how to use equipment and felt safe. Would have like a little more time to stop and take a few pictures at various spots. Amazing experience. Would have liked about 15-20 minutes more at each waterfall site as we had no time to climb the one. Both sites were fabulous.
